City of Charleston Certificate of Operation: OP2023-04269

You will have exclusive access to the entire first floor unit, providing you with a private and dedicated space during your stay. Additionally, please note that the backyard is a shared space for all guests to enjoy.

NEED MORE SPACE?
We currently have 6 total units. There are 2 duplexes that are side-by-side. The green duplex has The Emerson Suite (top floor-3bd/1ba w/balcony) and The Charles Suite (first floor-2bd/1ba) and next door, the white duplex has The Harper Suite (top floor-3bd/1ba w/large balcony) and The Victoria Suite (first floor-3bd/2ba w/large porch). These two properties share a large professionally turfed backyard. Additionally, a half block down the street, we have another duplex with the Poppy Suite (top floor of grey duplex-3bd/1ba w/two balconies) and the Isla Suite (first floor-4bd/2ba w/porch), both of which share a professionally turfed courtyard. Be sure to check out the individual listings for a full list of amenities.

QUIET HOURS
Please note that this listing is situated on the top floor of a beautifully restored historic duplex. Although extensive renovations have been carried out, it is possible to hear occasional noise from the unit below. To ensure a peaceful and comfortable environment, sound machines have been thoughtfully provided in each bedroom. We kindly request that all guests show consideration towards one another by honoring our community's designated "quiet hours" between 10pm and 7am. By being mindful of noise levels during these times, we can maintain a harmonious atmosphere and ensure a restful stay for everyone.

EVENTS
Access to the property is restricted to only those individuals included in the reservation, unless prior arrangements have been made and agreed upon.

NON SMOKING
For the comfort and well-being of all guests, our property maintains a strict no-smoking policy. Smoking is prohibited on-site, and any violation of this policy will result in a charge of $250. We appreciate your cooperation in maintaining a smoke-free environment.

PARKING
You will have one parking space in our private lot. Should your group want additional parking, please contact us to discuss options! We also have one Tesla charger which would need reserved ahead of time.

PRE-APPROVED DOGS WELCOME
We wholeheartedly embrace our furry friends! We gladly welcome pups to join you during your stay, with an additional fee of $80 per dog, and a maximum of two dogs per reservation. Because you will be staying in a recently renovated unit within a property that may have other guests, we kindly request that all dogs are well-behaved, trained, and considerate towards fellow humans. To maintain cleanliness and hygiene, we kindly ask that pets refrain from accessing the bed, uncovered furniture, and encourage the use of a crate when you are not present, if you believe it is necessary. By bringing your pet, you acknowledge and accept full responsibility and liability for their actions and any potential damages.

For the comfort and enjoyment of all guests, we kindly request that dogs are not allowed in the backyard. The yard has been professionally turfed to provide a pristine and pleasant outdoor space. Dog urine can create an unpleasant odor and potentially damage the turf. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in keeping the backyard clean and odor-free for everyone's enjoyment.

CAMERA SECURITY
To ensure the safety and security of our property, we have installed exterior cameras. We want to reassure our guests that the footage captured by Ring cameras is strictly confidential and does not violate their privacy expectations. It is important to note that tampering with or obstructing the cameras is strictly prohibited. Any guest found attempting to disable or obscure the cameras may face immediate eviction without a refund. Our intention is solely to maintain a secure environment for everyone's peace of mind.

INCLEMENT WEATHER
We have a strict cancellation policy in place. Refunds will only be issued if mandatory evacuations are ordered by The National Weather Service or local government authorities. Please keep in mind that refunds will not be provided if inclement weather in other states prevents guests from reaching Charleston. We highly recommend travelers to consider obtaining travel insurance, especially during months when weather conditions may impact their stay. Furthermore, in the unlikely event of power outages, internet disruptions, or any other situations beyond our control caused by local storms, we will make every effort to resolve the issues promptly. However, we regret that we cannot offer refunds for any inconveniences caused by such circumstances.

We really enjoyed the house! It was perfect for the 3 of us girls to getaway and have some fun! We were a little disappointed in the shared backyard area. Didn’t look as nice as it was in the photos. The listing didn’t mention that dogs couldn’t be in the backyard area, unless we missed it. It was only mentioned to us at check in time. We would have considered an alternate place with a backyard for dogs. But other than that, we enjoyed ourselves and the house was very accommodating for what we needed and location wise in Charleston!!

Historical Charleston

The house is quite cute and definitely shows it historic beginnings. If you rent the downstairs unit, please be aware that the upstairs unit is extremely noisy. The first group that was there during our stay awakened us with partying out in the back car park area at 4 AM. The second group that checked in had four young children that ran from one end of the house to the other sounded like a bowling alley. Both groups did not adhere to the owners request to “please remove your shoes” upon entering. Secondly, the dust and grime around the baseboards in the bedrooms, was amazing. The cleaners need to pay more attention. Also, the bed was zip tied to a headboard, which moved whenever you sat or turned in bed. These comments are certainly fixable, and if there was better transparency in the booking, listing one would be able to make choices as to whether they want to inhabit the downstairs unit.

Perfect Home Base for Exploring Charleston

The Charles Suite was a beautiful spot for me, my husband, and our fur-baby to stay while visiting Charleston for the first time. It was clean, comfortable, and beautifully decorated. Communication with the owners before, during, and after our stay was excellent. All of the amenities (plus some!) are available - keyless entry, smart tv in the living room with lots of streaming platforms, coffee pot/filters/coffee, toiletries, hair dryer, beach towels, guidebook and more! Both bedrooms have comfortable queen-sized mattresses, ample closet/dresser space, and sound machines. While there is some noise if guests are staying in the unit upstairs, the sound machines certainly help offset any disturbance. The large rain shower completes the tastefully decorated bathroom. Just outside the bathroom is a washer & dryer! There is a dining table for 4 in the kitchen (which we did not use, but would certainly be useful to families with kids) and pots/pans/dishes for anyone who opts to eat-in. The comfortable living room (with tv and Google Play music options) is a nice retreat after a long day. We visited many of the restaurants and sites suggested in the guide book. Some of my favorites included a trip to Magnolia Plantation (we saw alligators!), a boat tour of the Harbor, dinner on Sullivan's Island, and a walk across the Revel Bridge (wear sneakers - it's 2.5 miles long ... one way!). There are lot of local spots to grab food, as well as great shopping a short (maybe 7 min) walk away on King Street. We had no issues getting Ubers and most places (stores/restaurants) are extremely dog friendly. Brandy - thank you for welcoming us and making our stay in Charleston so wonderful! ~Jessica, Bill and Lucy

The just were very welcoming and accommodating ! They really went above and beyond with making our stay enjoyable. The unit was clean and neat and had all our basic needs. I think the only suggestion I have is the comfort of LR furniture, we needed to pull the chairs over to use as stools for our feet on the sofa and grab pillows and throws from bedrooms.

Worst stay ever.Unbelievable noise at 3:30 AM — people shouting, banging, and dragging furniture for hours like it was the middle of the day. When I complained to the host, they casually said it was because the guests “had flights.” Seriously? That’s no excuse for a total lack of respect.The upstairs guests stomped around and moved furniture nonstop for nearly two hours, waking up my 6-year-old daughter in tears. Not a single apology, not even basic decency from anyone. I reached out multiple times, knocked on the floor — nothing changed.Completely unacceptable, zero sound control, zero accountability. This place should be avoided at all costs.

Was a bit disappointed with our stay. House is very old and has a smell. The neighbor is not the best. I thought that the marketing of the house was misleading. It’s advertised as a luxury stay, in reality it’s not. Also there’s no backyard as shown on the pictures, that was very disappointing as well. The pictures are from a different property.
